Excellent Data

I’ve been wearing the forerunner for two weeks and I love all the data it gives. Far superior to other smart watches

I love everything about this device! Immediately it accurately calculated my miles and my swim laps. I love all the data it collects and the way it presents it. It’s great!

I love my watch. Very comfortable and nice that it fits my small wrist. Still have a learning curve for all the options.

Very Small Watch Face
on April 7, 2024
Posted by: TLew
I'm sad to say that I don't enjoy this watch very much. It is so much smaller than my Forerunner and I wish I stuck with that model. It's hard to read anything without my glasses on and I do not run or bike with them. I also don't think that the actions you commonly take (e.g., changing activites) are intuitive on this watch.

Great Running Tool

I bought this as an upgrade to replace my Forerunner 55. I wanted a wach that could display my blood sugar, and wanted more tracking features than my entry level Garmin. It provides tons of data - so much that I sometimes have to remind myself to get back to work! I am absolutely happy I made this purchase.

I feel like the modes of workout are a little bit confusing! I can’t seem to find a feature for the gym workouts and getting an actual feedback!

Easy to use

I bought this one, after I returned the vivoactive 5. I absolutely am in love with this one. It’s all buttons but since it’s the S it’s not overly chunky and lots of easy to use features!
